GUIDELINES FOR PUMP SYSTEM DESIGNERS jacques chaurette p. eng. August 2011 Synopsis The following is a list of potential problems areas or simply just good design practice that the author has applied and encountered over the years. They deal mainly with piping issues that affect pump performance. 1. Flow and pressure relationship of a pump When the flow increases, the discharge pressure of the pump decreases, and when the flow decreases the discharge pressure increases (ref. ). 2. Do not let a pump run at zero flow Do not let a centrifugal pump operate for long periods of time at zero flow. In residential systems, the pressure switch shuts the pump down when the pressure is high which means there is low or no flow. 3. Use pressure gauges Make sure your pump has a pressure gauge on the discharge side close to the outlet of the pump this will help you diagnose pump SYSTEM problems. It is also useful to have a pressure gauge on the suction side, the difference in pressure is proportional to the total head.
